Having lived in South Florida for 12 years and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, I became a fan of the University of Miami Hurricanes and always liked their Mascot for the sheer look of determination but also since he was often portrayed smoking a pipe. What's in the pipe, we can only guess? So a story caught my eye today, from the student newspaper for the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida, called Marijuana: our dirty little secret in which the staff columnist, Timothy Heacock really hit the nail on the head with this statement:
Everyone in the media seems to have a good laugh when politicians reminisce about the times they "toked a little herb." What seems to go unnoticed is the blatant hypocrisy shown when these same people continue to support the prosecution and jailing of people whose only offense was getting high or helping others get high.
Well put Mr. Heacock! Hey, furthermore, I think it was an appropriate choice of quotes from Nate Dogg, to emphasize your point about the "best remedy for hypocrites" in your succinct and direct article:
.... smoke weed every day. ~ Nate Dogg

I love Miami and am a huge Hurricane Fan but have to say that it's not always easy finding good dank bud in South Florida, especially compared to my home in California
